Director of IT Operations scaling SaaS growth through EOS execution, revenue ops, and AI automation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Director of IT Operations and Operations & Growth leader with 8+ years scaling SaaS businesses through EOS-aligned execution, revenue operations, and AI-driven workflow automation. I specialize in diagnosing where manual processes hide systemic gaps—then rebuilding the systems and infrastructure to remove the friction.
In my current role, I diagnosed and rebuilt CRM architecture across sales, onboarding, and operations by replacing a fragmented tool ecosystem with an integrated HubSpot system—creating a single source of truth and reducing client response times by 30%. I also designed AI-driven automation workflows that eliminated operational bottlenecks, increasing cross-department productivity by 40% without adding headcount.
I’ve built reliability and governance foundations that hold under growth. I established QA and reliability frameworks to reach 99.9% uptime across business-critical platforms, and I put data governance and compliance protocols in place so client data became a competitive asset—enabling faster, more confident operational decisions.
I’m equally effective in shaping execution and accountability using EOS. Across prior roles, I rebuilt onboarding with SOPs and a digital Training Academy, reducing onboarding time by 35% and improving consistency; restructured CRM and customer success workflows to reduce churn by 23%; and redesigned sales-to-operations workflows to accelerate hiring cycles by 30%.
